The Cove has tried a number of times to get real business examples of using QFD. So far no one as come forward. If QFD is merely a theoretical application that is not widely accepted or used, should it still be taught as one of the major quality tools? Bill Pflanz

I was going to respond to the new request on QFD but realized I had already made the same comments prior that I would make this time.

For some people QFD just refer to "House Of Quality" (HOQ), but of course it can in academic terms include other more complex issues.

The problem in general with the QDF's approaches that I have seen so far, is that they lack a broader integrated perspective, eventhough you think that you "translate" a customer approach into a productive/engineering thing, then it is still from and within the views of engineering.

A really useful and modern QDF shall integrate both marketing language with production and sourcing issues, but also strategic to the practical levels.
I did a whole master thesis on this subject, which is confidential, but if any of you meets such challenges, let me know and I will be there to discuss with you :)

Mikael,

If your QFD master thesis is "confidential", why would you be willing to discuss it here?

The Cove exists because we like to share and learn...;)

Glad you're here. :agree:

:agree:

The thesis was actually just a start, I realized that now, it does not make you a professor, as a matter of fact it just gives you even more questions to debate in this forum and yes have the need to share and learn, and keep in shape, thanks :)
 
Hello every one
I have a question
I am working on QFD house of quality matrix, and I am working to use system dynamics.
Actually I want to see the correlation matrix (the roof of HOQ) effects on calculated weights using system dynamics.
can anyone help me or know similar research on correlation matrix?
